Chapter 30 Do you want to vent your anger?
The meeting ended half an hour later.
Han Xi pinched his brows, then remembered something, picked up the phone and called back.
Almost instantly.
"What's going on with you? Why aren't you answering the phone?"
Han Xi leaned back in his chair, looking tired. "What's the matter? Tell me."
Xu Fangye was in the shower. He turned off the water and whispered, "How far along are you and my sister? Does she suspect anything?"
Han Xi frowned: "Which aspect do you mean?"
Xu Fangye wiped his face and said, "She called me just now and wanted to ask me something about you. I had a few drinks and my mind wasn't clear, so I almost let it slip."
Han Xi's eyes finally opened, and there was a hint of nervousness in them: "She knows?"
"Are you in Hangzhou?" Xu Fangye answered the question irrelevantly.
"yes."
"Did she look for you just now?"
"No."
Xu Fangye breathed a sigh of relief: "Then she probably doesn't know yet. I didn't say anything. No matter how smart she is, she wouldn't have thought that I would help you to trick her."
The word "routine" made Han Xi frown.
It was indeed not upright to lie with Xu Fangye that the Xu family was in crisis and use marriage to trick her into his hand. He had tested her before, and although she didn't say anything in the end, it was conceivable that the person who was deceived would definitely not be happy.
But he really couldn't wait any longer. He could watch her fall in love, or even get married.
But he couldn't bear to see her get hurt again and again by a man who didn't deserve it.
Song Yuchen is not worthy.
He had given him enough opportunities, but he just didn't know how to cherish them.
The treasures that he dared not even touch for so many years were trampled upon by him, so don't blame him for taking action and snatching away the person who didn't belong to him!
"I put my head on the line to help you with this. If you treat my sister badly like that guy surnamed Song..."
"Compare me with him?" Han Xi's voice was full of arrogance.
Xu Fangye was speechless. "Yes, I know you and Song Yuchen are different. I just want to remind you in advance. After all, my sister has been entangled with him for so many years. It's impossible for her to let go just like that. Don't push her too hard. Give her more time."
"......I know."
Xu Fangye was naturally reassured about Han Xi's feelings for Fang Li, otherwise she wouldn't have accompanied him in such a big drama.
"I feel relieved with your words."
Just: "You must keep the marriage fraud secret. Don't let my sister know, otherwise I will definitely be beaten to death by grandpa."
"Don't worry...I'll find a chance to confess this to her."

Yaoxing acted quickly. The next day, while Fang Li was still asleep, the administration department sent her the specific amount of liquidated damages and some subsequent procedures.
Fang Li was dazed and squinted her eyes as she opened her phone.
After seeing the super long string of numbers on the screen, I woke up laughing in my bed.
She was a newcomer in the circle who was not even a third-tier star, but the penalty for breach of contract demanded by Yaoxing was as high as 18.39 million.
Isn’t it ridiculous that there are both zeros and whole numbers?
Following the amount was a long list of termination procedures. Fang Li suppressed her nausea as she read through it, and the more she read, the more disgusted she felt.
Yaoxing's termination agreement sounds very reasonable, but it can be summed up in one point: if you want to terminate the contract, you can pay a penalty of more than 10 million yuan and leave at any time.
But if she can't afford it, she must obey the company's arrangements and continue to work for the full term of the contract.
During this period, there must be no disobedience to the company's management. It is also specifically emphasized that good relationships must be maintained with the company's artists and that nothing that would be detrimental to the company's image should be done.
It is obvious who the company's artists are.
It is conceivable what kind of exploitation she would face if she continued to stay in the company.
I didn’t expect that Yu Wei actually has so much say in Yaoxing that she can even interfere when artists terminate their contracts.
In all the years she has been in the company, she has only starred in one drama, and the rest are insignificant commercial performances, magazines, and small announcements.
All the film remuneration and wages added together are not even a fraction of the penalty for breach of contract.
They really dare to ask for such a high price.
The more Fang Li thought about it, the angrier she became. She immediately planned to go to Yaoxing again to see the ugly faces of these people in person.
-
When the doorbell rang, Fang Li had already packed up, and the only thing left was to put on lipstick.
She went to open the door with the lipstick in her hand, but unexpectedly it was Han Xi outside.
"So early?"
Seeing that she was dressed neatly, Han Xi walked in naturally and raised the breakfast in his hand: "These are the crab roe buns from Jiuyueju. Eat some before you go out."
"You knew I was going out?" Fang Li closed the door and followed in.
He opened the breakfast and set it out, then took a clean cup from the table and poured milk in it: "Are you going to Yaoxing?"
"Well, I never thought that canceling a date would be so troublesome."
"Didn't you say that the deal was already settled? Why are they making things difficult for you again?" Han Xi handed the milk to her, his brows furrowed.
Speaking of this, Fang Li was so angry that she wanted to laugh: "Do you know how much the liquidated damages they calculated were?"
Han Xi picked up a bun with chopsticks and put it in her bowl.
"Over 18 million, and there are still decimals and integers. Isn't that ridiculous?"
Fang Li angrily took a big sip of the milk he handed her.
Han Xi looked at her, and after a few seconds he took out his phone and tapped a few times.
The next moment, Fang Li's cell phone rang.
She took it and looked at it, then looked at the man opposite in astonishment.
"Why did you transfer so much money to me?"
Han Xi: "Give them the penalty for breach of contract."
"........You think I can't afford it?"
"You don't think it's worth it, so you don't want to pay, right?"
Fang Li pursed her lips.
Han Xi looked at her: "But I think it's worth it. More than 10 million to sever your relationship with them is a good deal in my opinion."
"Are you afraid that I might..."
"no."
He was always quick to sense what she was about to say.
"Do you want to vent your anger?"
"Let out... anger?"
He suddenly stood up and was about to walk out.
Fang Li had a bad feeling and quickly grabbed his hand.
"What are you going to do? You're not going to hit anyone!"
Han Xi tilted his head and looked down at her with a hint of amusement: "In your heart, am I someone who only knows how to solve problems with violence?"
Fang Li moved the corners of her mouth embarrassedly: "Of course not."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything."
His eyes flickered with a dark light, revealing a hint of arrogance. "Just go to Yaoxing. I'll make a phone call and come right after."
-
When Fang Li and Yu Tian arrived at Yaoxing, it was almost time for dinner.
She called Lin Lan in the car and asked her to bring the finance and administration staff downstairs.
Lin Lan was puzzled, but Fang Li hung up right after she finished speaking, not giving her a chance to ask back.
"What does she want to do now?" asked Yu Wei, who happened to be in her office.
Lin Lan shook her head.
Yu Wei sneered, "Maybe she's here to apologize. There's no way she can afford to pay such a large amount of liquidated damages. She's so stubborn. This time, I want to see how she begs to come back!"
